Summary Every teacher strives to create a classroom where students are responsible, respect rules, and stay on task. Now, in one single resource, educators are given the tools they need to create the ideal learning environment. The Well-Managed Classroom describes the powerful Boys Town Education Model techniques that have proven to increase instruction time and reduce discipline problems and office referrals. The book describes in-depth how to integrate social skills instruction into the entire school day and across curriculums. Tips for managing student behavior by improving teaching interactions are outlined as well as how to replace traditional office referral practices with more therapeutic teaching alternatives.
